How to add 1d4 to perception rolls?

Hello! I'm not a very tech-savvy user, but I have a question. How do I make it so whenever I roll perception for my character, it automatically rolls the extra 1d4 from his intuition die? Thanks! ;D

On the 5E sheet?

You can add a Global Skill Modifier in the Tool Proficiencies & Custom Skills box. This works just like the Global Damage Modifier. Check the box whenever you roll Perception.

To make sure you can add this, click on the little gear next to the Spells tab in the top right, and in the General Options section, check the box next to Show Global Skill Modifier Field.

Thank you! This helped lots! (:

If it a permanent 1d4 bonus, it looks like you can modify the "perception_roll" attribute of the character sheet so you won't have to keep toggling the global skill mod back and forth.

To do this, you would go into the Attributes and Abilities tab of the character sheet, and scroll down the left side until you find the "perception_roll" attribute. It will have something like the following value:

@{wtype}&{template:simple} {{rname=^{perception-u}}} {{mod=@{perception_bonus}}} {{r1=[[@{d20}+@{perception_bonus}[Mods]@{pbd_safe}]]}} {{always=1}} {{r2=[[@{d20}+@{perception_bonus}[Mods]@{pbd_safe}]]}} {{global=@{global_skill_mod}}} @{charname_output}

You can try changing it to something like the following:

@{wtype}&{template:simple} {{rname=^{perception-u}}} {{mod=@{perception_bonus}}} {{r1=[[@{d20}+@{perception_bonus}[Mods] +1d4[Intuition]@{pbd_safe}]]}} {{always=1}} {{r2=[[@{d20}+@{perception_bonus}[Mods]+1d4[Intuition]@{pbd_safe}]]}} {{global=@{global_skill_mod}}} @{charname_output}

Seemed to work for me.

Note: the {{always=1}} and the {{r2=...}} parts may be different or non-existent for you, depending on sheet settings. What I would recommend is copying the existing value into Notepad or something so you can revert back if you add something incorrectly. The critical step is just adding the "+1d4[Intuition]" immediately before the @{pbd_safe} entry (or entries). This will add a permanent 1d4 to only your perception rolls, and not affect any other skills. When you mouse over the roll in chat, the bonus roll will be labeled "Intuition". 

EDIT - I have never actually done this before, but in testing it looks like it works. The 5E OGL sheet gurus would be able to tell you more about if this would get overwritten later by some sheetworker code or something. Of course, you can always fall back on the Global skill mod method!
